A 74HC173N Quad D-Type Flip-Flop with 3-State Outputs is a high-speed CMOS logic Integrated Circuit (IC) designed for register storage and digital bus interfacing. Encapsulated in a standard 16-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP-16), it features four D-type flip-flops operating synchronously on the positive edge of the clock signal. Printed clearly with part number "74HC173N" (NXP branding), it includes dual data-enable inputs for selective data loading, an active-HIGH asynchronous master reset ($MR$), and 3-state output enables to interface directly with common system buses.

This product is featured by Famephase Electronic Accessories as an essential digital logic component for data registers, bus-oriented storage, holding latches, shift registers, and microprocessor interface circuits.
